The aim of the master's thesis "Government shutdown: moral panic discourse in the online edition of the New York Times (October 1 to 16, 2013)" is to find out how moral panic discourse is formed in the online edition of the New York Times during the government shutdown in 2013. The theoretical background of the thesis is based on moral panic theory, Peter Wasterman's "media-hype" approach and the American culture context. The New York Times articles from October 1 to 16, 2013 are analyzed using quantitative content analysis and discourse-historical approach. In the thesis, it is concluded that moral panic forming discourses about government shutdown's created danger for the American society are present in the New York Times digital edition articles in October 2013. Keywords: Government shutdown, American culture, moral panic, media-hype, "folk devils", discourse-historical approach
